| These changes were ''not'' just a matter of language. It did need some subject-matter understanding. The latest version has changes in the language, and better science, with some sources. | | These changes were ''not'' just a matter of language. It did need some subject-matter understanding.

| ==What not to do==
| |
| Do '''not'''...
| |
| *use poor grammar or incorrect spelling.
| |
| *use bad English: This is Indian English, not Bad English.
| |
| *use contractions (such as I've, can't, hasn't). Instead, do use long forms as this allows learners to recognize familiar grammatical patterns.
| |
| *use complex sentences.
| |
| *use [[idiom]]s (one or more words that together mean something other than what they say).
| |
| *use words you are not sure about without using a [[dictionary]].
| |
| *write articles so short that they offer no useful information.
| |
| *write in the [[grammatical person|second person]]. Good encyclopedia articles are never addressed to "you". Do not make statements about "you".
| |
| *put links in titles (or other elements that structure the article). Try to keep the navigation and the structure of an article separate.
| |
| *just copy a whole article from the normal Bharatpedia and leave it like that without simplifying it. If you do not simplify it, it will be difficult to understand and is likely to be immediately deleted.
